"After giving a $500 deposit, I drove 3 hours to their lot. When I arrived, they pulled the car around for me to test drive. The dash was lit up like a Christmas tree. The TPMS was going crazy. They added air and it still didn't shut off. Was told that the salesman had a Lexus and to give it 5 minutes. Still didn't shut off. They left all kinds of helpful info out of the ad. Like 1 key, that's $350 to cut and program if you have a blank, almost $500 If you don't. The car was pretty much stripped out. No first aid kit, the ashtray inserts, manuals, tools, pretty much anything that could be sold separately was gone. The rims were all curb rashes, with one looking very bad. The rear spoiler was cracked. When I point these out, I was told that it was marked aggressively, with a lot of interest in it. Funny how it had been sitting on their lot for 90 days. Guess all that interest was from dreamers with no cash. Since I did like that series and the color, plus driving that far with 2 small children, I bought the car. Paid for it in full. Only thing I got them to do was fill the gas tank. Everything they said was missing was going to be easy and cheap to replace, just go on eBay. Ashtrays are $30+ each, found a blank key for $100, and now after calling around all morning, can get it cut and programmed for about $350. If I want a Lexus first aid kit like the one that comes with every Lexus, another $25. Still finding stuff that doesn't work. After getting it back home, took it into my mechanic, and the upper radiator hose had a pin hole in it. Not even 24hrs old and repairing it. Car started vibrating after about 100 miles at highway speed, so it will be back in the shop to check balance on tires while we hunt for the bad TPMS unit. The steering wheel is now cocked off a little bit, checking into the alignment for that, and then an oil change. These guys are in a fog most of the time. They look at you like you're from outer space over the simplest questions. Like, can I test drive the car, or can you peel your stickers off the windows so we can put the temp tag on and I can drive home with children safely? So if you are thinking about driving there to buy a car, you might want to keep looking. I won't be back. I would also tell friends to avoid them like the plague. Next time, I'll just set 10 Grand on fire, I'd get more out of it. Best advice I can give them is to actually start caring about your job and those who take the time to drive that far to do business with you. It will go a long way. "

"Got the car that I wanted relatively painlessly compared to some dealerships.
Did not appreciate the $199 "documentation fee" which was tacked on at the last second. "
